SOLUTIONS

1 ) The solution for number 1 is to do a fraction first, then you see how many are left over and put them in cases.

2) It goes evenly so there won"t be a remainder so you justy divied so there can be an even amount in each.

3)Number 3 is also like number 2 it goes eavenly so just divide and it will go eavenly.

4)Number 4 is just dividing by 2 you divide by 2 beacuse "half" is 2.

5)On 5 you just divide and see how many you need.
